I know folic acid is very important when planning for pregnancy and during the early stages. Besides supplements, what natural foods contain good amounts of folic acid that I can include in my diet?
Eating good foods rich in folic acid like dals, eggs, and green veggies is so important. I focused a lot on nutrition which really helped me stay strong even during my C-section recovery later. Take your green veggies regularly, they really help!
For folic acid, green vegetables like palak, whole grains, and beans are really wonderful. Since every pregnancy journey is unique and precious, please do take the folic acid tablets your doctor has prescribed along with these foods. Wishing you a very smooth and beautiful journey.
Oh God, I panicked so much thinking I wasn't getting enough folic acid from my food! But then I realized green leafy veggies, lentils (dal), and even citrus fruits have so much of it. Don't worry, just eat your regular home food and take your supplements.
You can eat spinach, broccoli, beetroot, and dals to get natural folic acid. It is very good for the baby's early development. Just keep eating a simple balanced diet and stay happy.
Palak, broccoli, and nice hot dal are your best friends now! 🥦 Even peanuts and oranges have it. Just enjoy your meals and make sure you eat your green veggies daily! 😊
I was just reading up on this because my doctor stressed on folic acid so much! I'm trying to eat more spinach and oranges. Are we supposed to take natural foods only or do we compulsory need those tablets too?
